Description

THURS 31 OCT 1968 PARA 00.30.22 NORTH LONDON. Halloween, strung out on stranonium, Luther has an appointment with destiny in Highgate Cemetrey...

Superb page from a landmark in British comics. This is the inked and lettered foreground narrative page: the background painted page is also in my collection. This careful construction of pages from image an narrative is what has made Talbot's Luther Arkwright so influential, with image and text mirroring story and narrative.

Thanks to David for the deal!

Ink on thin paper.
Paper: 29 cms X 27 cms
